Form a team Thursday 9/302. Take Team Course Saturday, 10/23. Choose a project 10/74. Get problem accepted 10/12Form a Team•Suggest teams of 3-4 (tops) •Some bases for choice–Compatibility–Challenge–Dependability•Choose carefully- but decisions are reversible•Each member of the team has at least one Leadership Role plus each assists the other in their roles. Roles can rotate.–Leadership Role examples •Program Manager•Marketing•Systems Engineering•Component Design•ProducabilityExamples of Team ProjectsExamples:–A security project e.g. an electronic lock which is controllable remotely–A laser projection patterning system for home or rock concerts–A digital instant camera–A light emission diode display–A mass spectrograph accessory–A simple computer animation system–An auto body dent removal system–A design based on business plan of E102–A Research Project you are involved in which has productization potential–Other ideas arising from brainstormingTeam Problem•Use tools described in Class including the following tools•PM•ROI•Market Research•QFD•TRIZ•Systems Engineering•DOE•DFA•FMEA•Six Sigma•DFEGrade or P/F (but whole team must be the same status)40% HW, 40% Term Assignment, 20% class participationAll grades are designed to assess knowledge of the design process, creativity in applicationA word on teams•Feedback show that this is an area that needs improvement–Schedule engineering–Running a meeting- too much wheel spinning–Equality of Effort–Occasional blow-up•To help in resolving some of these concerns, we are requiring that all class participants attend a one-day course on TeamsWorking Effectively As A TeamKathleen TerryParticipative Management SystemsSaturday, Oct 2, 1999 9:00 AM to 4:30 PMAvery LibraryDuring the Engineering Design of Products course, youwill be asked to work as a three-person team. In order tohelp you in accomplishing the course’s objectives andminimize the potential issues that might arise when youwork with others in a teaming situation, students will havethe opportunity to attend a one-day team building class.This class is designed specifically to increase yourteamwork effectiveness and efficiency. The skills youlearn during this program will also help you when workingwith or leading others within and outside of Caltech.The training will focus on developing skills in the followingareas: Team Development Meeting Management Conflict Resolution Team Facilitation.Program ObjectivesDuring the training you will:- Identify the benefits and characteristics of an effective team.- Analyze your own effectiveness as a team leader/member.- Achieve better working relationships among team members.- Identify your preferred work style and its impact on others.- Practice building team consensus.- Agree on and practice conflict resolution strategies.- Set up efficient and effective project meetings.- Clarify group roles, goals, relationships and decision processes.The instructorKathleen Terry has had extensive experience in helping industrial organizations
